Joseph George Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Commack Abbey, Inc. on Feb. 8, 2026.
Joseph George, known to many as "The Famous Joe George," passed away peacefully at home with his wife and son by his side.

Joe was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, son, friend, and colleague. He showed up - for his family, for his friends, and especially for his grandchildren. He coached every sport and never missed a chance to be there.

He worked hard, valued the relationships he built with his customers, loved tropical beaches, and truly enjoyed being the life of the party. His presence was unmistakable and his energy unforgettable.

We are very to hear about Joe's passing. He was a wonderful man...always happy always giving his all. I loved listening to his stories and trying to help with customers needs over the last several years. He will be missed. Love, Long Island Laminates

To Joseph´s family. I lived next door at 14 Zoranne Dr E.Northport as Joey and his Mom and Dad and sisters and brother were growing up. They were an exceptional family!! I want to let the family know that I was sad to hear that Joey died, but we know he is in heaven now with his family who have gone ahead of him. The last time I was in E.Northport, I visited with Liz, their Mother. We lived at 14 Zoranne Dr. Shortly after that, we had to take our mother, Florence Sexton, to live with my husband and I in Stony Brook. I knew back then that Joe was diagnosed with Parkinsons.
May the blessings and touch of Jesus, put His hand on Joe´s family and friends. We will be praying for you all as you go through this grief.
Much love, Joan Elizabeth Sexton Clotworthy

Remembering Joseph George at a family gathering last October, when many of us were together to honor my father. I´m grateful he was there, sharing the moment with family. He will be remembered and missed.
